JUDGE CITES SHERIFF FOR CONTEMPT OF COURT.

Sheriff Shlrer, of Jasper County, Required to Make Appearance Next Monday and File Answer. A motion by Prosecutor Longwell was filed with Judge Hanley Tuesday requiring Sheriff Louis P. Shirer to appear next Monday, April 18th, and show cause why he did not conduct Clinton L. Bader to the penitentiary Immediately after commitment was issued, instead of taking him to Winamac and allowing him partial freedom pending the effort of Bader’s friends to secure a parole for him. It is understood that Sheriff Shirer had been informed that he had five days within which to carry out the order of the court and that he thought he was acting within his bounds in allowing Bader some time at Winamac. The case is in contempt of the order of the court and will come up for hearing next Monday.
